The Almighty Ring

Jiang Fei was not bothered by the snippy comments from the players on the ground. After all, he was not a Professional player and did not need their approval to earn money. However, Cosmic Dragon could not take it any longer. If he continued to waste time bantering with Jiang Fei, his fans would become annoyed and would stop spending money on him.

“Holy Light! Retribution!” Cosmic Dragon suddenly lashed out. It was undoubtedly a sneak attack.

“Damn!” Jiang Fei was taken by surprise. A golden sword of light descended from the skies. Jiang Fei did not have time to react.

Resist!

Although Cosmic Dragon’s Magic Attack appeared grand, its effect was very disappointing. Cosmic Dragon’s meager 100,000 Magic Attack was powerless against Jiang Fei’s 310,000 Magic Defense.

Despite Cosmic Dragon having a much higher level than most players, and was one level away from Level 80, he was still at a great disadvantage against Jiang Fei who had reached Level 90 and also attained the Overlord status.

The ten-level difference, coupled with Jiang Fei’s Overlord status, meant that Cosmic Dragon could not even make use of 30% of his powers. On top of that, Jiang Fei had 310,000 Magic Defense. That meant Cosmic Dragon’s skill was practically useless.

“How could this be…?” Cosmic Dragon was dumbfounded after seeing how his first spell had failed. Although he had expected Jiang Fei to be much stronger, he was not prepared for such a thorough defeat.

“Ehh…” Jiang Fei could sense the awkwardness. His objective was to buy time for the Nephilim race. However, it had become difficult for him to continue the battle. Even if he did not kill Cosmic Dragon instantly, Cosmic Dragon would probably give up on the fight on his own.

However, if the solo fight ended, the players would start charging into the valley. Jiang Fei would not be able to stop them. Although Jiang Fei was powerful and would probably not be killed by the millions of players, he was also incapable of killing so many players on his own.

If the valley was lost to the Light Faction, his previous efforts would go to waste. All his hard work for the past two days would be futile.

“That’s not possible! He must have activated some sort of skill!” Cosmic Dragon consoling himself. He started using another skill.

Hand of Sanction!

As Cosmic Dragon used his Magic Spell, a huge hand appeared from the sky and was directed at Jiang Fei.

Resist!

Even if Jiang Fei did not do anything to stop the attack, he was still unaffected by the spell. The issue was mainly caused by his passive Overlord’s Might effect, which could not be turned off. Jiang Fei was also unable to reduce his Magic Defense as the Cauldron of Intelligence remained active as long as he possessed it.

“I don’t believe your Invincible state will last forever!” Cosmic Dragon was truly annoyed now. Even if Jiang Fei did not do anything to block his attacks, Cosmic Dragon was still embarrassed by his own ineptitude.

“Holy Light! Noon’s Judgement!” As Cosmic Dragon chanted the spell, the sky suddenly turned dark for a moment. However, a bright light appeared soon after.

Shuffle!

The Divine Light God’s shadow figure appeared behind Cosmic Dragon. While the players did not react to it, the Celestial race’s soldiers all bowed and looked at the figure respectfully.

“You are guilty!” As the Divine Light God’s shadow figure announced, golden swords of light formed in the sky. The swords were pointed at Jiang Fei and the Nephilim soldiers behind him.

“Hide yourselves!” Jiang Fei was relatively calm in the face of this ultimate skill. However, Yisuke began to worry. He could tell from the magical vibrations that this was a supreme Seal Curse Spell.

The elite Nephilim soldiers hurriedly hid in the inner sections of the valley. Jiang Fei was the only person who remained at the entrance to the valley.

Zoom!

The first golden sword started moving toward Jiang Fei like a falling meteor.

Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!

After the first golden sword had started moving, the other swords of light began to rain down on Jiang Fei.

Resist!

Resist!

Resist!

Resist!

Although Jiang Fei was blinded by the shower of golden swords of light, the effects of these attacks were vastly disappointing. Despite the large number of swords of light, most of them failed to damage Jiang Fei. Some would occasionally deal one point of damage. For Jiang Fei with millions of Health Points, such damages were basically meaningless.

“What the heck! I thought it might be an impressive battle. Cosmic Dragon is so weak!”

“Yeah! He sounded so confident. It’s all an act. He can’t even break through Verdure Glider’s Defense!”

“Is there no other player in the Light Faction? Why are we letting this piece of crap humiliate us?”

***

The players were realistic. They would always side with the stronger party. Cosmic Dragon was unable to hurt Jiang Fei at all. The players on the ground naturally stopped supporting him.

Their attitude had shifted completely from being respectful toward Cosmic Dragon to now insulting him for being so weak.

“This can’t go on! I won’t be able to make a living! Even if I can’t defeat him, I must show off my capabilities!” Although Noon’s Judgement had not yet ended, Cosmic Dragon was thinking of what he could do next. He had observed the players’ reaction on the ground. If his fans gave up on him and supported Verdure Glider instead, Cosmic Dragon would lose his source of income.

“Damn. Will this ever end?” Very soon, Jiang Fei started feeling agitated. Cosmic Dragon’s Seal Curse Spell lasted much longer than he had expected. It had been longer than a minute. If Jiang Fei was not a literal human boss, he would have died long ago.

Although Jiang Fei was not physically hurt by the bright lights from the attacks, he could barely open his eyes. Finally, Jiang Fei decided to turn around with his back to Cosmic Dragon. After all, Cosmic Dragon could not even pierce through his Defense.

“Eh?” Just as Jiang Fei turned around, the teleportation point in the valley lit up. Elder Prince Otis had returned with a new batch of soldiers.

“Alright! Since Otis is back, I will not let you live any longer!” Jiang Fei smiled coolly. He had kept Cosmic Dragon alive mainly because Otis had not returned until then. Jiang Fei was only trying to buy time for the Nephilim race. Now that Otis had returned, there was no point in keeping Cosmic Dragon alive.

“Ahh! Old friend, it seems that I still need to use you in such a crucial moment!” Jiang Fei stored Abraham, Destroyer of Kingdoms, away. Although the sword was powerful, it was still a melee weapon. Jiang Fei did not want to transform just to fight Cosmic Dragon.

Although Jiang Fei also had a flying mount, Evol. Skygliding Dragon did not have as strong defenses as Jiang Fei did. Therefore, Jiang Fei had unmounted himself when Cosmic Dragon started casting his Seal Curse Spell. Jiang Fei had absorbed the full impact of the Seal Curse Spell from the ground.

After changing his weapon to the Heaven-piercing Twilight Bow, Jiang Fei fired two rows of arrows in Cosmic Dragon’s approximate direction. The two rows of arrows appeared to reach Cosmic Dragon at the same time.

“Oh, crap!” Cosmic Dragon could not activate his Invincibility state as Noon’s Judgement was still being cast. It was too late for him to end the spell.
